I just really want to start buying my tires from tirerack and doing it
myself, thats the plan anyways.

I use one every time I need to mount a tire. I buy my tires "loose", mount
and balance them myself. The bubble balancer works well...you can balance a
tire with it. Better than letting a tire jockey strip your mounting lugs or
torque them to 400 ft/lbs so you can't change a tire on the road.

Subject: [MBZ] manual tire changers
Anybody ever used one of those manual tire changers like you can get at
harbor freight? Thinking about getting one of those and a manual tire
balancer. Have heard you can get tires balanced pretty darn good with a
plain old manual bubble balancer. Just wondered how good the manual
changer worked though. Would rather have a pneumatic one though but
those are too expensive.
